"In Australia we keep our refugees on Easter Island." Said Lana, the tall dark haired Aussie to Jonathan's right.
"That sounds fascinating!" He said in reply.
The truth was, Jonathan really didn't care, he had come to Vancouver to represent his tiny Caribbean island's government at a conference. That being said, the very tall Lana with her wide hips and large bust didn't mind his glances down her blouse.
"So what happens when they are granted Refugee status?" Asked a platinum haired Icelandic woman across the table.
Lana smiled at this, Jonathan took the pregnant pause to glance down her shirt again. Her milk white curves left him wishing for x-ray vision.
Lana looked around in attempt to build up suspense before finally replying. "We let them go to Papua New Guinea, or Cambodia."
There were several gasps, followed by looks of shock, especially from the Icelandic woman. A large Texan man started laughing and slapping the table as if it was the funniest joke he had ever heard.
Jonathan's phone vibrated during the commotion, looking down at his screen he read the message 'We are two blocks away.'
'Meet me in the lobby.' He typed back.
Smiling Jonathan leaned over to Lana to whisper "I have to go."
Lana paused her explanation to reply. "You right mate?"
"Yes, yes, I need take a call. Can we finish this conversation another time?" Jonathan said.
"You just give me a cooed when you see me next!" Lana said with a devilish smile.
Jonathan brought his eyes up to hers to say, "Count on it!"
Leaving the restaurant Jonathan moved quickly, he didn't know how much time he had. When he did make it to his hotel, he felt dishevelled and sweaty.
"Would you like a seat?" The waitress asked.
"Yes please," he replied, "I'd also like a glass of water."
Seconds seemed like hours while he waited sipping his drink. No replies appeared on his phone, and each glance towards the entrance of the hotel revealed nothing.
Frustrated he started to type. 'Did you find a parking spot?'
Before hitting send he spotted the couple he was waiting for, a balding tubby man of average height with a petite woman who's brown hair went down her back. The man wore khaki pants, with a blue sports jacket over it. The lady had only a trench coat with heels.
Jonathan told himself. "If that wasn't them, I am going to make new friends."
Dashing from his seat, he was on them in the blink of an eye. The chubby man smiled as he approached, the petite lady seemed very shy and guarded.
"Jonathan I assume?" The bald man said.
"How did you know?" Jonathan said surprised?
"Unless the CFL is playing, there aren't any African-Americans in town." He said laughing.
Jonathan smiled, but didn't laugh. "So... mister uh?"
"Thomas, but you can call me Tommy." Tommy said in reply.
Jonathan released his hand to turn to the lady next to him. "Good evening madam, how shall I address you?"
Clearing her throat, she spoke for the first time. "My name is Felicia."
"I'm pleased to meet you, would you both like to sit and have a drink?" Jonathan said motioning to his table.
Felicia and Tommy both nodded their heads before following him. Once seated Jonathan looked up to see the couple he just met standing nervously.
"Sit next to him Felicia. I want you both to get to know each other much better." Tommy said.
Felicia did as directed, Tommy sat across from them. The waitress came to take their order; a salad for Jonathan, two beers for Tommy and water for Felicia.
When the waitress stepped away, Tommy spoke like a man on fire giving out his last will and testament.
"I'm really happy that you agreed to meet us tonight. This is a first for Felicia, ever since college she's always wanted to be with a black man." Tommy said.
Felicia looked up at Jonathan with her big brown eyes, he was starting to get hard just looking at her.
"She's very submissive, and loves to be tossed about in bed. The rougher the better!" Tommy said with a grin.
Felicia's eyes squinted the smallest of fractions. Jonathan noticed the mirco-expression she gave, filing it for further thought.
